BOMBAY OMELETTE

Steps:

• Mix the yogurt with half the coriander leaves, the lime juice, then season and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a non-stick frying pan (ideally with a base a little smaller than the tortilla) over a medium heat, add the onion and fry for 2-3 mins or until softened. Add the coriander stalks, garlic and chilli, and cook for 2 mins more or until softened but not coloured. Add the curry powder and stir to coat well. Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and, once it's beginning to set, draw the egg in from the sides with a spatula, allowing the uncooked egg to fill the gaps at the side - this ensures the base doesn't overcook before the top has set.
• To serve, heat the tortilla in the microwave for 20 secs, then spread with the yogurt mixture. Slide the omelette on top, sprinkle with the rest of the coriander leaves and roll up, tucking in the edges if you can. Slice in half, to serve.

BOMBAY POTATO OMELETTE

Steps:

• Heat most of the oil in a pan. Fry the onion for 10 mins until starting to caramelise, then add the potato and fry for a further 8 mins until the edges are beginning to crisp. Add the curry powder, most of the nigella seeds, some seasoning and a splash of water. Cook for 1-2 mins, then scoop the mixture onto a plate. Wipe out the pan with kitchen paper.
• Increase the heat and add the remaining oil to the pan. Add the eggs and some seasoning, then use a spatula to stir a few times. Leave to cook for 30 seconds. Pile the potato filling onto one side of the omelette while the top is still a little soft. Fold the omelette over to cover the filling and cook for a final 1-2 mins, if you like your omelette set all the way through. To serve, top with a drizzle of yogurt or raita and some chilli sauce, if you like.
